[W1SMH] RE: FW: Load Management in MA

[Kenneth Stringham]

Mike,

I don't listen to AMBC except for Sports, like the Red
Sox.

What we have observed is that it appears on audio
systems like my computer speakers and my 2mtr radio
both at home and in my mobile. My friend across town,
KA1EZH, has noticed the same thing.

Is it 24/7? I can't tell. I don't operate much at
night here. I have noticed it daily including
weekends.

We will try to get a suitable recording for you ASAP.

Ken
